WHAT IS ORCID?

ORCID is a free, not-for-profit service offering each researcher a unique digital identifier. This helps researchers to distinguish their work from works by others with similar names. ORCID records hold non-sensitive information such as name, email, organization and research activities.

ORCID will interconnect with other researcher identifier systems that are currently in use, including Elsevier's Scopus Author ID and Thomson Reuters' ResearcherID.

WHY DE GRUYTER RECOMMENDS ORCID?

De Gruyter has been a supporter of ORCID since 2014, recognizing that ORCID can greatly help reduce administrative work in research activity management and reporting, as well as in job and grant applications.

De Gruyter encourages all book and journal authors to provide an ORCID ID when submitting their manuscript for publication. Authors who don’t have an ORCID ID can register for one at http://orcid.org.

Through ORCID, researchers can allow publishers, funders, and research organizations to access the information in their ORCID profile during manuscript and grant submission, and/or when completing job applications.

The ORCID registry can support efforts in conflict-of-interest reporting and author role acknowledgement.

De Gruyter also anticipates a range of broader benefits to research through the use of ORCID: for example, connecting research-related information to support career tracking, and helping to identify peer reviewers and potential collaborators.
